Cheating Death 101

Monday, October 6th, 2008

Tonight was my first complete clear as ‘Main’ tank in Kara and I’m thrilled. I didn’t MT it all, namely Shade, but instead threw on heals and kept people alive. I was able to MT Prince and Nightbane though without a problem really, but we had some really wretched elemental drops on Prince, like nothing we’ve ever seen before. Three times in a row, dropped right between the tank and the group, and there was an elem (or two) on the tank at almost all times. Anyway, that’s not all that interesting, just another story from another guild that’s farming Kara.

The REAL fun comes in after our Kara runs. One of our resident warlocks, Tiburon likes to give us a chance to make 25g (apparently the easiest money you’ve ever made). He’s an honest guy, so why not? Only 5g gets you into the pot, and then we play Ritual Of Doom. The rules are simple; if you die, you win, but money isn’t any good to you dead. Tonight we played, but I had a trick up my sleeve (read the combat log):

We are a seriously-casual raiding guild.

We have Kara down to a slightly less than 4-hour clear.

And I do this:

Battlegrounds Are Serious Business

Mizzle and I got ready for our weekly raid on Thursdays just like we always do, but a lot of people were out of town, getting married, or in other ways unable to make the raid, so we ended up calling it before it started and queued up for some battlegrounds.

After earning something like 60 EOTS tokens in only a couple of hours, I get this lovely whisper:

A GM whispers Lolotov

Naturally, as you can clearly see by my double-question-mark inquiry, this raised huge WTFs over my head. Recently I’ve been moving a lot of gold between accounts to level my jewelcrafting and I have bought a few patterns. I was concerned that I got flagged or something for that, but I didn’t. I immediately alt-tabbed and checked my account’s email and saw nothing. I fired up a ticket in-game to ask about this and finished out the round in EOTS. Blizzard’s awesome ticketing system provided the very unhelpful ‘Wait time unknown’ message and I went to the bank to drop off my BG tokens. I checked my mail, expecting some auction returns and got a notice about the same thing, but this time from ‘Customer Support’ which pretty much sealed the deal and led me to believe that no one was trying to trick me or anything like that. I checked my account email again and the message had finally showed up. I present in all it’s glory, my first ever World Of Warcraft warning:

Please adjust the tightness of your crotch.

If you can’t make it out, I was basically reported for saying this: ‘thortok your dick is on too tight’ (as the BG Leader, no less! :D).

Thortok was some clown in one of the EOTS matches that was whining about who-knows-what and basically being of no help to the team. he started giving everyone shit and I started lashing out again (in true Alliance fashion, as I understand it). Anyway, I embarassed him or something and he reported me for harassment. We’re playing  fantasy game where we KILL other beings repeatedly for HONOR, but me telling him that his dick was on too tight just finally crossed that line into inappropriate territory in this ‘Teen’ rated game.

Can you imagine being the GM that has to read reports like this? How absolutely stupid.

I closed out the night with 95 EOTS tokens and earned ~6500 honor from EOTS. Not bad considering AV is the one to grind for honor.
